well said Pegasus, what you said was my thoughts exactly. using a doc title put a big emphasis that they are qualified doctors. this is sooo misleading.
please do not forget the poeple who log into psych central are ill and when one is ill you tend to be easily led or misled . by doing away with the doc title these misleaders come back into the relm of being the equal to the rest of us non docterates. I can understand the docs not wanting to lose their titles, but there is nothing wrong with being an equal, and we non docs really do not bite, i for one have always had my dinner before coming on this site!
